New Pics of Max now lowered with Tein S-Techs/Illuminas
New Pics of the Max. Now it is lowered with Tein S-Techs instead of H&R springs. Also struts now are Tokico Illuminas instead of stock struts. Let me know your opinions. And I know the car isnt finished yet. It is a work in progress unless somebody wants to buy it off me with the right amount of money. lol
looks great with the new drop!

Looks hot. My favorite spring/strut combo. Also love that color maroon ... that's from the 350z isn't it?
BTW ... been to the track yet with that motor? I wish I could find someone locally to do that motor/tranny swap for me. I'd rather do that than FI.
A little OT: does the 6MT mate up to the VQ30 with minimal work?

maxmods.net says there is a possibility that u could hit the bumpstops in the front due to the low drop... has this happened to u at all or have u ever heard of this happening??? b/c if not i'm gonna go w/ the s-techs, the drop looks awesome!
Did you measure the drop before and after between the H&R and S-Tien?

At the same token, I know someone with Eibachs who hits the bumpstops at the same places I do in town ...

yea hthe color is called brickyard and it is from the 350z. it is no longer made.
for the bump stops, i cut them like it says 1/3 to 1/2 and havent hit them yet. is is very simple to do. if you want a bigger drop, go for s-techs. they are not stiff at all to me even with illuminas on setting #5.
i have pics of before and after drop. i could post those also.

More information is needed to know if they bottom out a lot due to their softer spring rate and low drop. thats what the review on maxmods.net said... just seeing if anyone had such problems thats all
